Deepak Shukla, a former Deloitte tax accountant turned rapper and SEO agency founder shares his thoughts on what it’s like to break into a new industry when you don’t exactly look the part. We’ll also talk about putting yourself out there, dealing with judgement, and focusing on the future rather than the past. I’ll also address a listener question about balancing your current role and identity with your future ambitions.

How do things REALLY turn out when you make the brave decision to relaunch your career? Do things actually end up working out? Or does leaving behind a stable career end up coming back to bite you? In this very special 50th episode of Career Relaunch, I’m excited to welcome back Kelly Cara to the show. Kelly was my very first guest when this podcast launched back in Sept 2016, and she was voted by listeners as the guest they most wanted to hear from again.

Sometimes, getting fired from your job can be a blessing in disguise. This was true for Chief Revenue Officer turned professional speaker and author of “Confidence Creator” Heather Monahan. In this episode of Career Relaunch, Heather shares her thoughts on the power of revealing your vulnerabilities, asking for assistance when you need it most, and taking steps to become more confident in your career. In the Mental Fuel segment, I also share some thoughts on how simply asking for help made my transition from the US to the UK much smoother.

Living with less can sometimes allow you to do more. In Career Relaunch episode 48, JB Adkins, a former pilot turned founder of Skyryde, a flying taxi service startup, shares his humble story of walking away from aviation school to pursue his entrepreneurial interests instead. He’ll explain the tradeoffs he made to make things work, including living in an RV with his wife and two young boys to reduce costs so he could fund his venture. I’ll also reveal what happened to me on the exact day I made a similar decision to leave one path behind when I quit medical school.

Criminal defense lawyer turned chocolate company founder Shawn Askinosie discusses how listening to your intuition and investing your time into serving others can help you decide what’s best for your career. We’ll also discuss some counterintuitive ways to gain clarity when making career choices. During today’s Mental Fuel segment, I’ll share my own story of how serving others actually helped me decide where to take my own career when I was feeling a bit confused about my future.
